Chapter 520: Eyes Filled with the Light of Benefits
Xaviera Evans coldly stared at Anna Campbell, “This room was originally meant for me. If I had actually moved in, even if I didn’t get burned to death, I would be disfigured. Then the Campbells would be all yours, Miss Campbell, how cruel and ruthless you are!”
The servants looked on with contempt.
Miss Campbell was too much. Fortunately, Miss Drew didn’t move into the basement, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
“I…I…”
Seeing Anna Campbell stammering and looking guilty, Mrs. Campbell already understood in her heart.
When Anna arranged the room, she sprinkled mmable powder on the floor and ced many mmable items. If Xaviera had moved in, then…
No! It can’t be! Anna is so gentle and kind, how could she do such a thing?
Even if it really was Anna who did it, it was because Xaviera provoked her first, so it was all Xaviera’s fault!
Xaviera no longer paid attention to them and turned to go upstairs.
“Xaviera.”
At this moment, a male voice came from behind.
Xaviera turned around, and Mr. Campbell looked serious, “I heard that you know Elijah ck. The ck family will host a banquet tomorrow, and you should attend with us!”
Xaviera appeared calm. Although Mr. Campbell was polite to her, his eyes were full of interest. It didn’t matter to him who was his biological daughter; all he cared about was who could bring him more benefits.
She nodded with a smile, “Alright! I do know Elijah ck. He even introduced a role to me before!”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Campbell’s gloomy face somewhat rxed. Although he liked Anna more, Xaviera was not entirely useless.
Mr. Campbell: “Alright, prepare yourself and dress up nicely for tomorrow. You are now the Campbell family’s daughter, and you must not bring disgrace to us at the ck family’s banquet.”
“I heard that Mr. Caleb Mamet will also attend…”
As soon as these words came out, the whole room quieted down.
Mr. Campbell hesitated for a moment, speaking softly, “Adrian ys pranks and jokes with you. Although you don’t mind, Mr. Mamet was also in the car that day, so he might have thought that Adrian hired someone to kill him, so…”
“I think you are familiar with Mr. Mamet since you all rode in the same car. Can you say a few good words, have him drop the matter, and forgive your brother?”
Xaviera looked troubled, “Of course I want to save Mr. Campbell, but everyone knows that Mr. Mamet is bad-tempered. At that time, Mr. Campbell sent so many people to chase and kill us, and someone even attacked Mr. Mamet. If it wasn’t for Mr. Mamet’s assistant who helped us escape, we might not have survived. So, it won’t be easy to persuade him.”
Mr. Campbell’s face was grave, knowing that what Xaviera said was true. He gritted his teeth, “Why don’t you tell Mr. Mamet that as long as he agrees to reconcile, our Campbell family will give him a gift in return, hoping that he can ept our gratitude.”
Xaviera nodded with a smile, “Alright, I’ll talk to Mr. Mamet tomorrow!”
Mr. Campbell let out a sigh of relief, taking out a card from his pocket, “Xaviera, this card is for you. There’s 200,000 dors inside. Buy whatever you like, and if it’s not enough, just ask dad for more.”
Xaviera smiled sweetly, casually taking the card, “Thank you.”
She then bounced up the stairs.
As soon as Xaviera was out of sight, Mrs. Campbell couldn’t contain her anger, “Why did you give her 200,000 dors and take her to the ck family’s banquet?! She’s just a wild girl! Taking her to an upper-ss banquet, do you know how embarrassing that would be?! Can our family evenpete with the Imperial Capital ck family?!”
Mr. Campbell frowned in displeasure, “If we were still in Lokio City, it wouldn’t matter. But now that we’re in Libanan, everyone knows we’vee to find our daughter. If we only take Anna to the banquet and not Xaviera, the ck family will surely think our familycks manners. Aren’t we lowering our status by not having our biological daughter present but having our adopted daughter at the event instead?”
Mrs. Campbell reluctantly said, “But… But you still gave Xaviera so much money. She could’ve just picked something from Anna’s old clothes. They’re all like new; no one would be able to tell the difference. She’s not some top nobledy, so what’s the use of dressing so well!”
Mr. Campbell sighed helplessly, “Now we need Xaviera’s help. If we don’t treat her properly, how can we ask her to plead with Mr. Mamet? Don’t you want to save our son?”
